POETRY ON BUSES: An upcoming event will transport you.

Poetry works in metaphors, but we’re being literal when we tell you this: An upcoming poetry event will transport you.

If you take the First Hill Streetcar from Broadway to the International District (ID) for this year’s Lunar New Year celebration on Sunday, February 11, between noon and 1:30 PM, you’ll be treated to a live poetry reading along the way. In concert with King County Metro’s Poetry on Buses project, which has placed more than 350 original poems on local transit like Metro buses and the Streetcar, several local aspiring Asian poets will read their work on the way to the annual festivities.

On this special Sunday, several aspiring poets from the Asian community will be reading their winning submissions on the route between Denny Way and the ID. See more of the Your Body of Water collection here.
